How do celebrities manage to have perfect skin?

I know it sounds like a question you would read in a women's magazine but I'm curious as to what tips you lads would have. My skin is by no means bad and I probably put more care into it than is normal for a heterosexual male but it could be better and today the appearance of a painful zit left me wondering if there existed a solution to those horrible red spots you get occasionally or just general days where your skin looks like shit. Seriously, tell me about your skincare and what things you have picked up over the years.

So far my routine revolves around using Bulldog face-wash and Nivea moisturiser (which I highly recommend) for my dry skin along with ensuring I use plenty of conditioner in my beard bum-fluff to keep the hair soft on my face.

I'm careful to eat reasonably balanced meals and have fruit (apples, bananas, raisins in my muesli) plus orange juice so I don't get scurvy. I drink copious amounts of tea if that counts for hydration but I must confess that chocolate is a problem for me where I will happily snaffle a whole share bag of the stuff if its in the house so I'm wondering if you guys can offer any suggestions for something I can treat myself with that won't turn me into the elephant man (I've tried compromising with dark chocolate but its like having to eat vegetarian food at a barbecue).

Other lifestyle problems involve my smoking as well as the dry air of an office and lack of sunlight caused by my schedule of working nights. I'm not sure I can immediately solve those but maybe there is something out there to soften the impact they have.

Ah but that's just because all his characters are world-weary cynics and all of Heap's have been weirdos. Come on, just imagine Tim knocking on Brian's door, and when it opens it's Julian Barrett's face that appears and delivers the awkward pause and stilted lines. It fits him like a glove.

There's no difference between any of these branded moisturisers is there? I currently use some cheap own-brand Boots stuff. If I was to switch to some L'Oreal Men Expert Hydra Anti-Fatigue bollocks that costs a hundred pounds a squirt I really wouldn't see any difference would I?

I'd love you for it. But you understand it is an incredibly niche product that you wear once a year if you are lucky right? I own a navy blue tuxedo with black trimming, with complementing waist coat and cravat, there is a finite number of events I can wear that to a year (weddings, black tie events where I don't give a shit about being a bit too flamboyant, and the odd special event) but for the most part it is just something pretty in my wardrobe, and that suit would be even more niche. You have to ask yourself the question, when the time comes that you have the chance to wear that suit, would you? or would you lose your bottle because you are afraid of looking like a cock? If the cock element is overpowering, it isn't for you.

I need some underwear. It turns out that it's harder than I anticipated.

I got a pack of Next boxers, working out at £4 each, but it turns out there's a major design flaw in that my knob, which is overwhelmingly average, keeps escaping through the air fold bit in the middle, like a phallic Harry Houdini. All I want is a decent pair of undercrackers at a reasonable price, I didn't realise I was asking for much.

For what it's worth, I often rely on Uniqlo for underwear. I often tend to go for the tight, seamless versions, but there are many other types that I have had good previous experience with.

One of my favorite things about them is that they don't say "URBAN SPIRIT" or anything fuck silly over them.

Good quality underwear feels great, but I have had supposedly good quality underwear (pringle & bench) which even after mostly washing at lower temperatures, they haven't shrunk as such but have lost a lot of stretch and become less comfortable very quickly.

Linen boxers are also lovely, but due to the loose fit they're not really a good match for jeans or close-fitting trousers as they tend to bunch up.

>>5296
In theory, I completely agree with you, in practice I'll wear anything because no one ever sees it. I think those obnoxious logos go hand-in-hand with the trend of jeans getting lower and lower.

I assume that when they pull the flap of skin over, they also bring with it the blood vessels which are supplying it, and if I remember correctly male-pattern baldness is driven by the fact that the forehead and top of head get too little blood to flush out the chemicals which kill follicles.

Depending what kind of shoes you're after buying, they generally come in widths as well as lengths. I've got quite fat feet, so when I'm after dress shoes I often have to order into a shop to make sure that they're wide enough for my sturdy hooves.

How do I figure out which haircuts will suit me and which won't? Is there some sort of a guide like that picture about choosing glasses?

I'm sporting a butch cut right now. I'd like to try something new, the only requirements being low maintenance and short hair length.

The picture is an example of a haircut I fancy. I'm not sure if it will look good on me though.

What's the best way to dry your bumcrack after showering or taking a bath?

Toilet paper leaves clags behind and no matter how thoroughly I wash it seems to be up to chance whether or not they'll come back a little bit brown, so I don't want to use a towel and risk leaving brown stains on it.
Simply not drying it is no good, it leaves you feeling squelchy all day.

I agree with this chap. You don't need to shave it all off, just neaten it up. Go to a decent barber's and ask them to tidy it up and shape it for you; a well-kept beard certainly won't keep you from finding a job, but it will make everyone think you're a hipster. I assume you're used to that by now though.

I'm growing my hair to nirp length. Don't ask why, it's just something I have to do.

Regardless, what should I be doing to it before it gets that long in relation to cutting/trimming it? It's on just really spilling out of my collar now, but it's very "bottom heavy" and I'm looking to avoid a pseudo-Osmond-do if possible.

OP here, it has been two years since I last had a shear, but twice this week I've been inspired to do so again.

First it was a dream in which I had short hair and enjoyed it, and because you should do everything your imagination tells you to my mind was already made up. But just now I started watching Prometheus and remembered that David was the reason for another haircut soon after I first saw the film. That guy's so cool looking.

Godspeed, lad. I think everybody in this thread has probably cut a bit by now. The point is to try new things and see if they look good (or shit). Hope your crop serves you as well as it did in your imagination.

If I'm growing my hair out, do I still need to get it cut, so it doesn't just become a mess? Currently all my hair is the same length, I'm not sure if I need to get it tidied up or if that'll just make the growing process take longer.

If you leave it too long without a trim you'll look like a mentalist. Tell your hairdresser "I'm growing it out, I just want a light trim" at least eight times, or they'll fuck it up. Use conditioner.

I have not cut my hair for about 6 years now, it is now down to my waist.
It needs brushing every day at a minimum, otherwise it becomes a horrible mess.

Do you also have a beard and an extensive collection of metal t-shirts?
